Andy Warhol's fascination with Marilyn Monroe's fame, glamour, and tragic death began in the early 1960s. He immortalized her likeness, using a cropped film still from the 1953 movie Niagara, creating Marilyn, a powerful, instantly recognizable icon of both Pop Art and his own body of work. In 1962, Andy created a silkscreened diptych entitled Marilyn’s Lips, in which he isolated and repeated Marilyn’s lips 168 times over two colored canvases, painted in “lipstick and peroxide,” to reflect on fame. Our Marilyn’s Lips wallpaper is based upon this famous singular artwork.
The Beige Brushstrokes colorway features a background derived from Warhol’s Mao painting. The background ombré color fades from white at the top to a rich sand at the base, with the brushstrokes becoming increasingly prominent as the color darkens. The field of lips is rendered in slightly varied shades of pale rose pink.
Andy Warhol was a leading figure in the pop art movement of the 1960s and is considered one of the most important artists of the late 20th Century. The Andy Warhol x Flavor Paper Collection represents our interpretations of Warhol's work—some iconic and others handpicked from deep in the artist's archives—released in a globally exclusive partnership with the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, which has been ongoing since 2013.
